I don't see any problems with this approach, it's almost the same triples as in the original syntax. >and sometimes implies an interpretation of the iCalendar specification >which uses a different namespace, e.g. > <Vevent> > <location>New York, Sheraton Hotel</location> > <geo> > <geo:Point> > <geo:lat>40.442673</geo:lat> <!--invented GPS coords--> > <geo:long>-79.945815</geo:long> > </geo:Point> > </geo> >... This might be troublesome, however, since other applications/implementations might reasonably expect the object of the geo property to be coordinates. This seems to be the samme issue as with dc:creator/foaf:maker, perhaps it would be better to use something like cyc:near or foaf:based_near? >* how do we feel about using different namespaces for iCalendar >properties? (as in the geo case) There should be no problems with mixing namespaces, but essentially changing the range of properties could cause problems. >* how do we feel about altering the syntax of the RDFiCal generated by >the ical2rdf tools to make it easier to add say foaf or geo properties? Fine with me. >* should ical2rdf tools optionally generate foaf properties too, e.g. >for mbox_sha1sum for attendee? That sounds OK with me, unless ical2rdf should only be part of a minimal round-tripping implementation. >* do we need a best practice document for combining namespaces in this >way with RDFiCal? (I think we do) Indeed, a document explaining how to express various "extra" information would be nice, also how to use events in other contexts, much like you've written about before.
